Still not really sure of what year we took it off the road (that's Mary's job ). Good day today to get all the lights on and working plus some odd little things. |

If it were any other weekend, I'd be there...This was always one of my favorites. Father's Day weekend is one of those weekends where the VW hobby just has to take a back seat though..
Sorry guys. I have other plans with my daughter.
